dc.description.abstract Non-transferrin-bound iron (NTBI) was evaluated as an index of iron overload in a cross-sectional randomised study in 74 non-transfused patients with thalassaemia intermedia (TI). Mean NTBI (2.92 ± 3.43 μmol-l), serum ferritin (1023 ± 780 ng-ml) and liver iron concentration (LIC; 9.0 ± 7.4 mg Fe-g dry weight) were increased above reference-range levels. Significant positive correlations occurred between mean NTBI and LIC (Pearson correlation 0.36; P = 0.002) and serum ferritin (Pearson correlation 0.421; P 0.0001); with higher levels observed in splenectomised patients. NTBI assessment has potential as a simple reliable approach to determining iron status in TI. © 2009 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.
